The best show of Day 1 at Fashion Forward was delivered by the three Golkar brothers behind The Emperor 1688.
The coats and capes were the clear winners: they came in all sorts of interesting colours and sizes — and featured exceptionally tailored proportions. There was a lot of volume, but also stiffness.
And whimsy: two favourites were a green double-breasted suit and a blue overcoat with a red clover pattern and gold buttons.
Fur shawls and headpieces also made an appearance, likely a nod to Game of Thrones.
The luxury menswear label also showcased some impressive women’s clothing: mostly loose jackets, shorts and dresses. The standout was a grey hooded cape that created a tension between edge and elegance.
